You will
achieve grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each
day -- not long and difficult projects, but chores that will
take you, step by step, toward your rainbow. Write them
down, if you must, but limit your list so that you won't
have to drag today's undone matters into tomorrow. Remember
that you cannot build your pyramid in twenty-four hours. Be
patient. Never allow your day to become so cluttered that
you neglect your most important goal -- to do the best you
can, enjoy this day, and rest satisfied with what you have
accomplished.
-- Og Mandino
1923-1996, American
Motivational Author, Speaker

Ah, great it
is to believe the dream as we stand in youth by the starry
stream; but a greater thing is to fight life through and say
at the end, the dream is true!
-- Edwin Markham
1852-1940, American Poet and
Editor
The dreamer
whose dreams are non-utilitarian has no place in this world.
In this world the poet is anathema, the thinker a fool, the
artist an escapist, the man of vision a criminal.
-- Henry Miller
1891-1980, American Author
But sure there
is need of other remedies than dreaming, a weak contention
of art against nature.
-- Michel Eyquem De Montaigne
1533-1592, French
Philosopher, Essayist
To accomplish
great things we must first dream, then visualize, then
plan... believe... act!
-- Alfred A. Montapert
